I seem to have found a bug/limitation of executemany in MySQLdb.
I am inserting 3100 records into a database. It works fine and adds them in about 1 second.
I went back to the program today and realised i'd missed a field so added it to the insert statement. This seems to break it if I try to add all the records in one go. Through trial and error I have realised the limit is 2786 records in one go. Any more than that I get two different errors on the executemany statement:
"MySQL server has gone away" - This occurs if I try to add all 3100 records in one go.
"Lost Connection to MySQL server during query" - This happens if I am near the 2786 threshold.
Is there a known limit with this function???
